Brookstown Inn

No two rooms are the same in this historic, affordable, and very pleasant lodging, a former textile mill built in 1837. The interior, with its exposed rafters, high ceilings, and brick walls, retains its historic character. A "graffiti wall," where young female factory workers left their mark, has been carefully preserved. Each guest receives complimentary wine and cheese, as well as cookies and milk.

PROS

walking distance to Old Salem

nice extras

CONS

not as posh as newer hotels

some rooms have dim lighting

families might miss having a pool, especially in the sweltering summer
